Product Information
Full details
The Foppapedretti LoStiro is a professional-grade, space-saving ironing station designed for individuals looking to maintain a tidy laundry area without compromising on ironing functionality. This unit cleverly conceals a full-size, ventilated ironing surface within an elegant wooden cabinet, making it ideal for those who value both aesthetics and efficiency. A key benefit is its dual-purpose design as a piece of furniture that includes storage for linen and an iron, though users should be aware that the board height is fixed at 86 cm, which may require an adjustment in posture depending on individual height.

Steam is dripping from under the board.
Check that the ventilation holes in the poplar plywood are free from debris and ensure you are using the included padded underlay to manage condensation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the LoStiro is straightforward as it arrives largely pre-assembled. Simply ensure the unit is positioned on a flat, level surface before unfolding. The castor wheels are scratch-proof, making it safe for use on hardwood, tile, or carpeted floors.
Regarding care, the wooden structure should be wiped down with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its finish. If the ironing cover becomes worn, both the cotton cover and the polyester underlay ("ilMollettone") are designed to be removable and can be purchased as official Foppapedretti replacement parts. Always ensure the iron has cooled before placing it inside the cabinet storage area to preserve the interior finish.
